Feed hungry kids; take the pledge today!
March 9th, 2009 Posted in Community, Philanthropy, Uncategorized, Web
At any given time, one out of six children in America does not know when they will eat next, and wtih the economy, this terrible situation is only going to get worse.
However, in the next minute, with just a couple of clicks, you can feed 140 children. Working together, we can feed 420,000.
If you want to make a difference, it’s really easy to join the Pledge to End Hunger campaign. For every person who visits The Pledge to End Hunger campaign and signs the pledge, Tyson Foods will donate 35 lbs. of food (that’s 140 servings of healthy protein) to local food banks. In just its first day, 1,000 people signed The Pledge – enough to fill an entire semi-truck now destined for delivery to the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas in Austin.
Due to this amazing response, Tyson has agreed to donate two additional trucks – one to each of the two states with the most people who take the pledge. By simply adding your name, you can help feed children in need in your community. Indiana has a big lead right now, so you folks in other states might want to try to catch us!
Please take the pledge today and then SHARE this with your friends, family, anyone anywhere to help end child hunger.
